About FCA US Class Actions in New York

FCA US, now part of Stellantis, has maintained significant operations in New York through dealership networks and regional offices, serving hundreds of thousands of vehicle owners across the state. New York's Lemon Law provides particularly strong protections for defective vehicles, requiring manufacturers to repair, replace, or refund vehicles that fail to meet warranty standards after a reasonable number of repair attempts. The state's General Business Law Article 22-A also prohibits deceptive business practices in automotive sales and marketing. New York residents have been affected by various FCA US settlements, including the notable Dodge Ram 1500 EcoDiesel class action settlement related to emissions violations. When filing class action claims in New York, residents should be aware that the state follows the "first-filed rule" for overlapping class actions and has specific notice requirements. New York courts have jurisdiction over FCA US matters due to the company's substantial business presence in the state, and residents can typically file claims through both federal and state court systems depending on the nature of the violation.

What FCA US settlements are currently available to New York residents?

New York residents who owned or leased affected 2014-2016 Dodge Ram 1500 EcoDiesel trucks may be eligible for compensation through the EcoDiesel class action settlement. This settlement addresses emissions system defects and potential buyback programs for qualifying vehicles.

How does New York's Lemon Law interact with FCA US class action settlements?

New York's Lemon Law provides independent protections that can work alongside class action settlements. While you can participate in federal class action settlements like the Ram EcoDiesel case, you may also have separate rights under New York's Lemon Law for defective FCA vehicles purchased or leased in the state.

Do I need a New York attorney to file an FCA US class action claim?

Most FCA US class action settlements allow you to file claims directly without an attorney, regardless of your state. However, if you're considering opting out of a settlement to pursue individual litigation in New York courts, consulting with a New York-licensed attorney familiar with automotive law would be advisable.

Tips for New York Residents Filing FCA US Claims

New York residents should gather all vehicle documentation including purchase agreements, lease contracts, and repair records before filing FCA US settlement claims. Check if your vehicle's VIN falls within affected ranges for settlements like the Ram EcoDiesel case. File claims before deadlines, which are typically non-negotiable. Consider whether accepting a settlement affects your rights under New York's Lemon Law for the same issues. Keep copies of all submitted documentation and correspondence. Monitor your claim status through official settlement websites rather than third-party services that may charge unnecessary fees.
